>We are on the verge - within 10 years - of a major collapse of
>evangelical Christianity. This breakdown will follow the
>deterioration of the mainline Protestant world and it will
>fundamentally alter the religious and cultural environment in the
>West.

>Within two generations, evangelicalism will be a house deserted of
>half its occupants. (Between 25 and 35 percent of Americans today
>are Evangelicals.) In the "Protestant" 20th century, Evangelicals
>flourished. But they will soon be living in a very secular and
>religiously antagonistic 21st century.
